A new X-ray imaging technique can produce detailed images of living organisms with a much lower X-ray dose than previously possible. The researchers used the new technique to image tiny parasitoid ...

Researchers at the Technical University of Munich (TUM) have developed an innovative x-ray method for lung diagnostics, which they now plan to test in one of its first applications for diagnosis of ...

When Wilhelm Röntgen found X-rays in the late 1800s, the world was given a new way of seeing inside the human body and peering into hidden structures. That black-and-white imaging method still powers ...

Generally, X-rays are used to examine bones, while MRI and ultrasound are used to look at softer tissues. But an emerging method is adapting X-ray to image soft tissue, so that its higher resolution ...

In a breakthrough discovery, scientists have unveiled a novel method for X-ray generation, offering enhanced flexibility in emitting X-rays in various directions or focusing them. A nurse checks the ...

Using non-destructive imaging methods, a team of scientists has obtained three-dimensional insights into the interior of crystals. They determine important data about line-shaped defects that largely ...

PULLMAN, Wash. - Before the huge potential of tiny nanocarriers for highly targeted drug delivery and environmental clean-up can be realized, scientists first need to be able to see them. Currently ...

Imaging soft tissue in detail has required enormous particle accelerators that span several city blocks. A new method may soon bring this valuable diagnostic capability into hospital settings. There, ...

Among older people, vertebral compression fractures are very common, and those with such fractures are at high risk of incurring new ones. Findings in a new thesis from the University of Gothenburg ...

A technology called monochromatic X-ray imaging could reduce radiation dose per mammogram by a factor of five to 10 times, according to a research review published in the European Journal of Radiology ...

A new technique using chemically-sensitive 'soft' X-rays offers a simpler, non-disruptive way of gaining insight into nanocarriers. Currently researchers have to rely on attaching fluorescent dyes or ...
